Overview
Abdominal ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of myeloproliferative neoplasm. Findings on abdominal ultrasound suggestive of myeloproliferative neoplasm include splenomegaly, abdominal fluid, and hepatic lesions. Ultrasound of the extremities can assist with diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis, which is commonly associated with high-risk polycythemia vera.
